OWINGS MILLS, Md. â?? Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis says all the celebrating he did before, during and after a retirement party/wild-card playoff game vs. the Indianapolis Colts last Sunday in Baltimore was all about honoring the team and the city in his final home game.

But one Colt and fellow University of Miami alum didn't feel the same way after watching Lewis do his second "squirrel" dance of the day after lining up at tailback on the game's final kneel-down.

"I saw it as disrespectful," wide receiver Reggie Wayne told WNDE-AM radio Monday in Indianapolis. "They'd already had a tribute every quarter."

Lewis had a cavalcade of cameras stalking his lengthy pre-game rounds, which included a bear hug for NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. Lewis had an even larger posse chasing him around the stadium after his second dance routine as he slapped hands with fans in the first row.

Lewis said Tuesday it had nothing to do with showing up the Colts, and he was asked by teammates to dance once more.

"My teammates were the ones who were encouraging me the most, saying go out and give it to us one more time knowing that this will be the last time that you do it in Ravens stadium," Lewis said Tuesday. "It wasn't about (the Colts) at that time. That was capping off a heck of a legacy. â?¦

"I guess the trot around the field was disrespectful, too. It wasn't even about them. The game was over. I didn't go toward their sideline and make no big issue. I've never been that type of player."
